But definitely a cool gesture.
That perfectly describes overthought fine dining for me

Sbarros is better than every slice of Chicago deep dish. And Sbarros is garbage.

For the millionth time, no self-respecting person from Chicago claims that deep dish is the official chicago pizza. Tavern style is.

Exactly.

And that's why I've been very careful to say Chicago Deep Dish in this conversation and not Chicago style pizza.

that's how pizza got its start here in chigago -- it would be served in taverns (like pretzels are now) to salt the customers up.

usually you don't put the whole fish on -- it's just portions of the fillets added for umami. i actually make my pizza sauce with three processed anchovy fillets.
